Third Place Commons

Each year, Third Place Commons opens its doors to over 900 FREE events and hosts one of the largest farmers markets in the region. Thousands of Shoreline and Lake Forest Park residents visit the Commons every week to enjoy meeting spaces, music, dance, lessons, games, discussion groups, and of course, the Lake Forest Park Farmers Market every Sunday from May to October.

But did you know that Third Place Commons is a 501(c)3 nonprofit? As a result, the work of Third Place Commons to build Real Community in Real Space is only possible with your support.

If you shop at the LFP Farmers Market, then you are part of the Third Place Commons Community. If you dine in the Commons, meet in the Stadler Room, dance at the Friday and Saturday night music, bring your kids for play time or watch your family members on the stage, then you are a part of that community. If you write, work, weave, knit, paint, play, or plan at the Commons, then you are a vital part of the safe, welcoming community of Third Place Commons. And your support matters.
